Default funny noise/tranny help

im a newb here, so please dont judge me. but my car is making a clicking noise. it sounds like the clicking that one makes when you put a baseball card in your bike spokes.

it only happens in gear, usually at low rpms in the low gears. its worse on the colder days than warmer.

besides hte noise, the car works fine. never skips a beat in gears or shifting.

any suggestions?

its not a cv axle. it only happens when in gear. if i go around a corner in neutral, no noise.

its also a stick, did i need to add that?

if the noise only happens while turning corners then it is your cv joint(s)
